LONDON: Granada powered to their record premier league win an incredible 2-0 trashing of Barcelona. This made Barcelona worst start to a La Liga season for 25 years.

The Spanish champions have taken a single point from their three away games this season, failing to win any of their past seven matches on the road in all competitions.

Ramon Azeez and Alvaro Vadillo struck to condemn Barca to defeat at Nuevo Los Carmenes on Saturday, a stunning result that moved newcomers Granada top of the table on goal difference.
Barca, meanwhile, are lagging behind in seventh spot with seven points from as many games.

However, similar troubles for Real Madrid and other elite LaLiga clubs mean they are only three points behind the leaders.

Granada took the lead after just 64 seconds through Ramon Azeez, the fastest scorer against Barca since Karim Benzema, who broke the deadlock for Real Madrid in December 2011 21 seconds in.

They then doubled the advantage when Alvaro Vadillo converted from the penalty spot, the Blaugrana’s third conceded in their last four outings – as many as in the previous 61 matches.

La Liga’s surprise package will hope to continue their fine form on Tuesday away to Valladolid, hours before Barca look to get back on track at home to Villarreal.
